So question, do I need a VMnet adapter in order for the host machine to reach the guest virtual machine? Am I identifying the problem here or am I looking at an unrelated issue? If I need those VMware VMnet adapters, how do I get the VMnet to regenerate short of reinstalling the OS? Anything in the registry I can change/delete/add to start over for the VMWare Workstation Pro without having to dramatically affect all my guest machines (20+)? The guest virtual machine can reach out to the internet just fine. What happens is that I can ping the host machine from the guest virtual machine, but I cannot ping the guest virtual machine from the host machine. I do see during the installation phase that it attempts to generate the adapters but I am not sure if it is trying to generate the VMnet adapters on the host or if that is something else, but in the end it does not reproduce the VMnet1/VMnet8, etc. I have attempted to uninstall and reinstall VMWare Workstation Pro 14, keeping the VMWare configuration settings, but that did not generate the VMWare adapters. I have attempted to REPAIR the installation, but that did not resolve the issue. However, on the host machine the VMware Network Adapter VMnet1, VMnet8, etc that used to be there are no longer present.įrom my other system that has a working VMWare Workstation Pro environment, it has the expected VMnet adapters: Since it was installed on a separate hard drive, I had to reinstall VMWare Workstation Pro. I didn't lose any data, however, VMWare Workstation Pro software did end up becoming corrupt. Totally my fault after reviewing the UPS configuration set up. I did not shut down my VMWare Workstation Pro 14.1.1 build-7528167 before my UPS was scheduled to shut down the OS. My Windows recently went through a power outage.
